Board of Trustees
New Dawn Charter Schools Board Members serve a two-year term and are automatically nominated for another year term every June.
Due to the global pandemic, all Board meetings will be conducted virtually via Zoom. Board meetings are open to the public and we encourage our community to join us. Traditionally, our Board meets once a month, however during this time we have decided to hold more frequent opportunities to communicate and will be holding sessions every two weeks on Tuesdays. Please see the details and times provided below to join us:
The New Dawn Charter Schools Board of Trustees will be holding the next meeting on September 29, 2020, at 3:00 p.m. The purpose of this meeting will be for on-going status updates and open and consistent communication.
